In the CVS receipt-long list of people who should never speak up for black folks, Donald Trump and Uncle Ruckus are engaged in a bloody duel for last place.

In addition to Northams would-be successor, Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax, whose spent the past week being hammered by allegations of sexual assault by two women.
But again, this is Donald fucking Trump were talking about here. So Black Twitter politely declined his heroics and told him to go fuck himself in variety of colorful ways:
This guy cant go to prison fast enough.

Northam wore a racist costume in 1984
Trump lived a life of racism from Central Park Five to very fine people to his racist policies
And he joked about Native American genocide YESTERDAY https://t.co/pFiSyNLDkv
